I’m Really Not Trying to Be Chased by the Heroine as the Villainous Playboy! – Chapter 291

Chapter 144: I Want to Be Your Favorite

The curtains hung gently, blocking out the dusk, leaving only a faint afterglow seeping through the sheer fabric. The room lacked a fire, and the dim light flickered, giving off a gloomy atmosphere.

The princess gazed out the window, her back turned to the door, standing by the tea table. Her red hair fell loosely, somewhat disheveled, dressed in a deep red school uniform that lacked its usual pride, now tinged with melancholy and a hint of irritation.

Like a bullied little lion.

Even though Roy had entered the room, Charlotte still didn’t turn around, as if she hadn’t even heard the door open.

Roy sighed, treading lightly to stand beside Charlotte.

The red tea on the table emitted no warmth, and the girl’s expression remained haughtily aloof, perhaps even a bit unapproachable towards him.

Yet in those crimson eyes, there was a hint of grievance that only Roy could notice.

“I’m really sorry about that day.”

Charlotte let out a muffled hum, quickly turning her face away, unwilling to face Roy.

“There’s nothing to apologize for, it’s all that green tea’s fault. I don’t blame you.”

“If that’s really the case, then look at me properly.”

Charlotte fell silent.

“You’re still angry, aren’t you?” Roy managed a bitter laugh.

“I am not angry,” Charlotte emphasized slightly more.

“Though that’s only reasonable.”

“I already told you I am not—”

“But I still hope to have your agreement.”

Suddenly, Charlotte turned her head sharply, her brows furrowing, her expression fierce as she clenched her teeth.

A supernatural aura stirred slightly, radiating an imposing presence that caused a stir among the knights outside.

Then she suddenly stood up, raising her hand, flames whipping up around her.

Roy clenched his jaw, having no intention of dodging.

However, when the blow landed, the roaring flames vanished, turning into a rather weak punch that landed on Roy’s chest.

“I’ll just ask you one question, Roy. Do you still want me?” The girl’s voice came out a bit hoarse.

Roy met her frail gaze, gently holding her small hand that was clutching at his collar, and spoke earnestly: “My answer is the same as that day.”

“You are equally important to me.”

At his words, Charlotte’s expression brightened a bit, although her face became all the more complicated.

Equally important at least means she is not unimportant.

But it also meant there was another girl just like her occupying Roy’s heart.

“You ungrateful traitor, bad guy, playboy knight! You must’ve easily lost your heart to that green tea with those dangerous weapons!”

Charlotte glared over, scolding lightly but packing no real punch. In the end, she sighed heavily, feeling a bit powerless.

“You clearly belong to me!”

Roy took hold of her other hand.

With both of her hands caught by Roy, Charlotte squirmed a bit, but Roy effortlessly kept control.

Considering Charlotte’s Sequence 7 strength, if it came down to pure strength, Roy might not even be her match.

Noticing her state of mind, Roy felt a mixture of joy and gratitude, leaning down and softly saying to the girl in his arms: “I will always be yours.”

Charlotte turned her gaze away, muttering under her breath, “You just talk.”

“If I’m really your knight, then I should obediently listen.”

“As long as it’s you, Charlotte, I’m willing to listen to anything.”

At his words, Charlotte suddenly lifted her head and stared intently.

Her crimson eyes were inexplicably passionate, making Roy’s heart flutter a bit nervously.

“Then lower your body.”

“Eh?”

The princess’s face flushed with anger: “What did you just say about being willing to listen?”

Unable to retort, especially as her knight, Roy had no room to protest and had to suppress his unease, obediently following her command.

If she intended to hit him to vent, she would have done it earlier; what was she planning now?

“Lower even more! Lower still!”

Once Roy’s knees bent forward, adopting a rather comical pose that matched Charlotte’s height, she finally grinned in satisfaction.

“Now that’s better.”

Just when Roy was thoroughly confused, in a flash, the girl lunged at him.

The tea table trembled violently, teacups shattered to pieces, red tea spilled onto the floor, slowly soaking into a carpet.

Roy barely had time to react before he was forcefully pushed down onto the tea table, deprived of breath by the arrogant and unreasonable princess.

After a hasty kiss, Roy exclaimed in surprise, “Charlotte, there are still…!”

The window was open, and a hundred meters outside in the courtyard were so many of your subordinates! How embarrassing would it be if they saw this scene?!

Yet, Charlotte pressed down on him, sneering coldly.

But the flush on her cheeks betrayed her inner shame and shyness.

“This is a punishment.”

“???”

Roy was both amused and frustrated, wondering who exactly was being punished here.

But before he could speak, the domineering princess once again kissed him fiercely, as if ordering him to keep quiet through her actions.

The already burdened tea table trembled uncontrollably.

Before they could catch their breath or even separate, the burning kiss came again, as if the princess aimed to mark him with everything she had.

The more their breaths mingled, Charlotte’s own waist grew softer, her momentum gradually diminished, wanting to leave a punishment on her knight, yet she found herself getting pulled into it instead.

In the midst of their ragged breathing, their entangled forms rolled off the tea table.

Roy looked at the princess beneath him, realizing she was already flushed, her eyes glistening, transformed from a proud lioness into a powerless kitten.

The boy, who had been passive, dared not defy her; yet she herself turned over.

Charlotte reached out, gently caressing Roy’s face.

“Your previous answer, I do not accept.”

“You can like other girls.”

“But I want to be your favorite.”

Roy opened his mouth to respond, but her soft fingertip pressed against his lips.

“This isn’t a command, and you don’t need to answer. I will prove I can be your favorite with actions.”

This was perhaps Charlotte’s pride and restraint.

Liking him, while also being willing to accept his proposal, all that remained for Roy facing the girl was endless gratitude and affection.

Perhaps unable to withstand Roy’s overly heated gaze, the girl closed her eyes, her cheeks flushed crimson.

“I said before when I helped you, that you would have to repay me in kind.”

She tilted her head back, sounding both proud and soft as she hummed, “Now, it’s time. This is an order.”

“As you command, Your Highness.”

Roy chuckled softly and offered himself to his beloved princess.

Until the figures in the courtyard disappeared, the noise dispersed, until dusk fell from the sky, and night descended.
